8.3 PROCESSOR CORE INSTRUCTION SET
The instruction set for the GXLV processor core is sum-
marized in Table 8-27. The table uses several symbols
and abbreviations that are described next and listed in
Table 8-26.

8.3.1 Opcodes
Opcode
Opcodes are given as hex values except when they
appear within brackets as binary values.
#
##
Immediate 8-bit data.
Immediate 16-bit data.
###
+
Full immediate 32-bit data (8, 16, 32 bits).
8-bit signed displacement.
8.3.2 Clock Counts
The clock counts listed in the instruction set summary
table are grouped by operating mode (real and protected)
and whether there is a register/cache hit or a cache miss.
In some cases, more than one clock count is shown in a
column for a given instruction, or a variable is used in the
clock count.
+++
Full signed displacement (16, 32 bits).
Clock Count

n
L
|
Register operand/memory operand.
Number of times operation is repeated.
Level of the stack frame.
8.3.3 Flags
Conditional jump taken | Conditional jump not
taken. (e.g. “4|1” = 4 clocks if jump taken, 1
clock if jump not taken).
There are nine flags that are affected by the execution of
instructions. The flag names have been abbreviated and vari-
ous conventions used to indicate what effect the instruc-
tion has on the particular flag.
\
CPL ≤ IOPL \ CPL > IOPL
(where CPL = Current Privilege Level, IOPL =
I/O Privilege Level).
